Development/Software_Engineering_Framework


此网页的目的是总结KDE项目在软件工程方面所使用的工具和程序;覆盖所有编码工作。这包括错误修正,审查,测试,文档,需求等等。

目前所使用的KDE的工具集列出了其使用范围,已知的替代品,和优点/缺点。

Subversion 1.4 is currently used for source control management in KDE on a server hosted in Frankfurt. A separate server is used for access to the read-only mirror anonsvn.kde.org.

There is interest in migrating to a distributed source control management tool, such as GIT. Discussion of this is taking place on the kde-scm-interest mailing list. It is likely git will be used along with a tool such as repo.

CMake is the build tool currently used by KDE. It is Free Software developed by kitware inc and available on multiple platforms supported by KDE.

This tool was chosen as the buildsystem for the KDE4 series, and there are no plans currently to migrate away from it. CMake version 2.6.2 will be required to build KDE 4.2 final.

LXR indexes classes and methods used in KDE. This can be useful for finding examples of how to use a class, and finding all uses of a class while refactoring or updating API.

Patch review (pre commit)

Patch review (pre commit)
Current State   People  
  • David Solbach and the kde sysadmin team maintain the Plasma review-board installation.
Get Involved   Alternative Tools  
  • Launchpad.net offers merge review/approval pre-merge [1] [2] [3]


In general KDE does not have a formal patch review policy for individual patches. Some patches do get reviewed prior to committing to svn by the relevant mailing lists. This is the case for particularly large patches or patches by new developers.

As an official policy kdereview is used to review new applications and new classes for kdelibs prior to inclusion in KDE trunk. A drawback of this system is that not all reviewers report that they have reviewed the new content. It may make sense to have a checklist for reviewers to use, eg,

  • All new classes documented [x]
  • Private classes and d-pointers used where appropriate [x]
  • Passes all krazy checks [ ]
  • No obvious security concerns [ ]
  • Designed well/maintainable [ ]
  • etc...

This was discussed to some extent here, but has not yet been refined into a techbase page.

Current State   People  
  • kde-commits mailing list records all commits to KDE svn.
  • The commit filter is used to filter relevant commits based on path of the commit.
  • SVN CCMAIL: feature used to notify relevant mailing lists or individuals of specific commits.
  • SVN BUG: feature used to close bugs, and also notifies all bug subscribers of the commit.
  • SVN CCBUG: feature used to notify closed bugs of updates. Commonly used when porting fixes between branches. Also notifies all bug subscribers of the commit.

  • Unknown


The commit filter is used by several projects to forward all commits to the relevant mailing list.

Design review takes place on

  • mailing lists
  • project wikis
  • face-to-face/BOF sessions and sprints
  • kdereview

KDE does not have an offical design review process. Some design review takes place as part of the kdereview process. It may be possible to further formalise this or encourage design documentation.

文档

技术文档

Current State   People  
  • Danimo is the MediaWiki admin for techbase.kde.org.
Get Involved   Alternative Tools  

n/a


techbase.kde.org is a MediaWiki powered site used for collaborating on technical tasks such as tutorials, schedules, and project information. wiki.kde.org is a tiki-wiki site with the same function. Both are actively used. It might make sense to merge the two sites.


API文档

API文档
Current State   People  
  • Doxygen is used to generate api documentation from documentation strings in code.
Get Involved   Alternative Tools  


KDE API documentation is generated nightly and hosted on http://api.kde.org. It is also possible to generate the same documentation locally for use in an IDE for example.

It is possible to create man pages and qthelp documentation from kde sources.


用户手册

User documentation is generated from module doc/ folders and hosted on http://docs.kde.org.

meinproc is a KDE tool (written by Stephen Kulow which uses libxslt to transform docbook into (bzipped) html. At runtime kio_help opens that bzipped html and displays it to the user in khelpcenter.

http://userbase.kde.org is intended to be the primary source of user documentation on the web. Content will possibly be packaged for offline use in the future.

测试和质检

缺陷跟踪

缺陷跟踪
Current State   People  
  • Matt Rogers and the KDE sysadmin team maintain the KDE bugzilla installation.
Get Involved   Alternative Tools  


Bug tracking in KDE currently is managed using Bugzilla 3.0. Work was recently merged on a transition to Bugzilla 3.0 from Bugzilla 2.16. There is still cleanup work going on but most features of the previous Bugzilla installation already work.

Bugzilla can be difficult to use and daunting to newbies.


静态代码检查

  • Krazy hosted at EnglishBreakfastNetwork (EBN).
  • Coverity is used to find possible sources of defects and suggested optimizations. Results are displayed per module as part of Dirks Dashboard builds.

Additional checks are always welcome for adding to Krazy. See http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/quality/.

There is interest in more build testing for KDE especially on non-linux platforms. Improvements include some standard ctest scripts that can be used to build and submit a dashboard result for kdelibs to CDash. This would be run on a cronjob for simplicity.

Builds are planned for the following platforms:

  • Windows
  • MacOS
  • FreeBSD 6 (gcc)
  • FreeBSD 7 (gcc)
  • Solaris (S10, S11) on SPARC and amd64

Get Involved   Alternative Tools  

launchpad.net features a web-based tool called rosetta, which allows for easier fly-by translations. This is considered not to be useful as fly-by translators often do not follow guidelines or consistency rules when translating.

许可证

许可证
Current State   People  
  • A Fiduicary Licence Agreement is available, which will allow KDE developers to optionally assign copyright of their contributions to KDE e.v. This would allow easier relicencing of contributors content in the event that KDE needs to move to another licence. It also allows the e.v. to more easily represent the work in the unlikely event of a court dispute involving KDE code.
  • KDE licencing policy allows commercial and non-commercial development and proprietry and non-proprietry development.
  • Projects/KDE_Relicensing Effort to relicence KDE code to use version 3 of GNU GPL and LGPL. This work is unfinished but not still being performed. Many contributors are no longer contactable.
